The Tiny Beach Town In Michigan You’ve Never Heard Of But Need To Visit

Michigan is called the Great Lakes State for a reason, and our proximity to so many gorgeous bodies of water means that there’s never a shortage of unique beachfront communities to explore. While everyone has heard of South Haven, Traverse City, and Ludington, there are just as many hidden gems tucked away throughout the state. There’s one delightful village along the waterfront that’s overflowing with charm — and you might never want to leave.

We’re aware that these uncertain times are limiting many aspects of life as we all practice social and physical distancing. While we’re continuing to feature destinations that make our state wonderful, we don’t expect or encourage you to go check them out immediately. We believe that supporting local attractions is important now more than ever and we hope our articles inspire your future adventures! And on that note, please nominate your favorite local business that could use some love right now: https://www.onlyinyourstate.com/nominate/
